Suko w/ Titanus Doug [Godzilla x Kong]

Ever since Godzilla vs Kong came out in 2021, Doug has been in the hearts of many a kaiju fan. Don't ask me how this cute little guy who makes the briefest of appearances managed to become so beloved... but I had to have one too. Fortunately the little guy reappeared in the follow up Godzilla x Kong : The New Empire. Playmates released a toy of the lovable little guy in a 2 pack with Suko... that little shit you wanted Kong to punt into lava for 3/4ths of the movie. I've been speaking highly of Playmates kaiju figures and they did a great job with this two pack. Suko is pleasantly articulated for such a little guy and Doug has the movement you'd expect from a toy his shape. For $10 these are a great value. There's even a rock for Suko to throw. I do wish Doug had brighter paint apps... but it's pretty true to form. Playmates has seemingly shifted from GxK to Monsterverse as a whole and I'll be getting into some of those here eventually. With Bandai sofubi making a return to US shelves I don't know if Playmate's kaiju run is over, or if they're strictly Monsterverse now. Either way, what they've been churning out is solid toys. Playmates always makes good stuff and I'm really looking forward to their upcoming Power Rangers figures.

Fear And Loathing In Funkytown

Nothing say's Halloween like a haunted house. That's exactly what Skeeter has in mind for Halloween night. Blood Stone Manor just opened at Funky Town just in time for some spooky fun. Doug's pretty scared to go and gets Skeeter to do a little trick or treating before circumstances lead to bravery and a trip to Funkytown! Of course that circumstance is a mix of running into Patty Mayonnaise and being to old to trick or treat. Despite their best intentions, the park closes before Doug and Skeeter can get in the ride leading to Roger convincing them to sneak into the ride anyway. All hell breaks loose and did you hear that?

Ghosts.
